You are absolutely right; it was a people event, more than a tradeshow- as far as I am concerned. If it was a "tradeshow", then where were the folks running the show? Neither Jill nor I ever heard a word from anybody from the show/event organizer. Complain all we want about costs at Interbike, at least somebody from Interbike comes to our booth every single year and greets us and adds a human touch to the show. I don't expect anybody from Eurobike to come to Otter and beg me for an autograph or anything (though I AM the Masiguy), but a simple "hello", "thanks" or "hope to see you next year" would have been nice. Especially on the first year of this new partnership. I think I feel a rant (post) coming about this soon on the Kool-Aid site... stay tuned. Was great to see all of you as well!

Maybe if you and I work together we can get other people to believe it as well! It was great to see you as well and I'm looking forward to Interbike. I’ve never been called a celebrity before!
